RetroVans 1968 Fastback Complete


Just for your Intrest, here is the posting for the completion of the 1968 Fastback, Should you like to follow the full thread, please go to.. http://www.aircooledvwsa.co.za/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=20281 

Well guys, its been a year, and then some, the :bn: hit the fan a few times, other times things went very well, BUT at last the Fastback is on the road, and driving well.

Went on the 1st outing today, for a 80 Km round trip breakfast, Ran like a dream, what a feeling to run the thing that you have worked on for so many hours, man this was great. :D :D

For the guys with 20/20 vision, (HR) you will find that the back storage compartment is still awaiting the carpets, the arm rests still await the arrival of the rest pillows from the Upholsterer. Also the under dash cover, Yes, they do not come out with them, but mine will have a white one, with a parcel shelf, ( note to Santa.....)

Well here goes, the Photos of the (more or less) completed 1968 Fastback :D
